life as a Strange Mamma

Monday Meals…give or take a day

Okay. So much for blogging with discipline. I totally forgot I had decided to do the whole checking out what Doodle’s eating on Monday. Okay maybe totally is a bit of an exaggeration. I remembered while I was in the grocery store yesterday that I was supposed to try Doodle out on Cottage Cheese. They don’t seem to have any in this country. So by the time I got home I had forgotten again.

Then I’m reading this blog today, and lo and behold it’s a recipe for homemade cottage cheese. I have to say, I found the idea of cottage cheese before rather revolting. Now I really don’t know if I’ll be able to feed this to my child. I am truly sorry to those of you who make this a part of your daily diet. My good friends Emily and Sam would eat it for lunch if they wanted something light. And I didn’t hold it against them. Much. but now that I have such a concrete way of making it myself I don’t know if I can go through with it. But I will try. Maybe.

To be fair, we’ve had kind of a major deal happen. We bought a car. Don’t get too excited. It’s actually 6 years older than our last car. Which was a ’99. The Rocket Scientist is more distressed by this than I am, it actually reminds me of my first car, which I loved. I don’t have a picture for you today, but I will take a before and after (it wasn’t cleaned before we got it, but for 150 quid we’re not complaining).

Also my Mom is coming into town tomorrow. Yay!!! Well, I should say into the country, or maybe onto the continent, but you get the picture. So there may be more blogging without obligation in the next couple weeks rather than blogging with discipline. But I will more than make up for it with a barrage of pictures of her visit.
